GAMMA: Interview for Jt Colossus

Global Association of MMA, Fight Organization, London
Company profile by Mentor Guru Corleone

Hello Jt! Great to have you in the studio for a few questions about your career.

Question #1 39 wins, 29 have come via KO/TKO. Which KO was the most satisfactory during your time in GAMMA?

JT: So many good wins... SO many losses! Ha. I know this is corny but every win I get lately is my favorite.. I'm almost 40 and still knocking out blokes.

But let me put it in perspective; with GAMMA I have fought a total of 27 fights. I've headlined 8 cards. People love to see the Colossus fight and they know that one of two things is going to happen... 1) Colossus is going to knock someone out in vicious fashion or 2) The Colossus will get knocked out in a very violent way. But there's no finesse, it's swing for the fences and see who's left standing.
 
 
Question #2 You have had 27 fights in GAMMA already and have went up against some of the biggest names such as Simon Williams, Fidel Duberry, Yuri Rook, Arvydas Sabonis, Mark Mak

About Me: Dominicus Domingo

 I'm pretty sure everyone knows why I'm changing my name every five to six minutes, and if you guessed what I'm not about to say, then you're wrong. I was using my profile like a TV for five minutes, attempting to culture band wagonners like Soyster and Soyster.... yeah whatever. Anyway, yes this TV on profile thing was a good concept but I decided on doing something a lot more interesting, and please let me know if you're cool with this, I'm  going to post something weekly on the General Discussion (Real Life) forum every week so respect that shit, now let me tell you a little bit more about me ingame.

Fortitude FC presents FFC 7: Wolf vs Flagg

(Main Event)

(Heavyweight Division) Valentin Ralek (7-0) versus Xavier Barbossa (6-1)

This was a fight that primarily took place in the clinch. Valentin Ralek is a fighter that historically loves to stand and trade punches with opponents and has made a name for himself as a power puncher. Since he signed with Fortitude FC, we have seen Ralek take on back-to-back power punchers that utilize technical boxing to stop opponents. In both cases, the evolution of Valentin Ralek from brawler to well rounded striker has been on display.

Round 1 – Valentin Ralek immediately forced Barbossa to clinch with him and went to work with his elbows. Barbossa, being a man that doesn't have much expertise inside the clinch, was relegated to trying fruitlessly to wiggle free from the spider's web. Meanwhile, Ral

HONOR FC Vs FORBIDDEN VIOLENCE Event Review

Event Review: HONOR FC Vs FORBIDDEN VIOLENCE
HONOR Fighting Championship
2014-06-28, Las Vegas, The Parisian
Attendance:5,250, Event Rating:314
Author:

Saturday saw a great night of events hosted at the Parisian in Vegas, we also saw an interesting development as Forbidden Violence fighters came here and swept the HONOR FC representatives three to zero to repay the favor of HONOR doing the same to them last month. A title also switched hands as Roy “The Wardog” Pitbull defeated the now former champ by third round TKO.

Brandon "Badboy" Marsden (17-14-1) vs "Gung Ho" Vladimir Van Kirkland (20-12)

Despite being controlled on the ground Van Kirkland was able to outwork his opponent on the feet and take a narrow decision. Marsden had plenty of opportunities on the ground to finish it but was unable to capitalize on his superior position. As we often see the judges favored the guy who was able to stay more active with the punches.

Prediction: Marsden Via Sub Round 2 Result” Van Kirkland Via UD

New Rio Clothing Company Aims to Help Rookies

Duce & Gogoplata, Nutrition Company, Rio de Janeiro
Company profile by

The streets of Rio are empty. The city’s residents are all glued to their television screens, in their homes or in bars, while a lucky few have gained entry to one of Brazil’s several stadiums hosting the World Cup. Football fever burns with intensity through this country, where the “beautiful game” is almost as much a religion as a game.

Yet, while Brazil has produced a plethora of skilled footballers, it is also renowned for being the home of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and numerous MMA stars, living and legendary. It is now also home to Duce & Gogoplata, a clothing company aimed exclusively at MMA fighters, especially those just starting out in the sport. Although it counts just one location in Rio’s main shopping district, the company has already seen its fair share of business in the last few months.

Henrique Cardoso, native Brazilian and the manager of several MMA fighters, founded the company with one express purpose in mind: to provide good quality gear to rookies un

Mixed Martial Farce Magazine Interviews Brody Macbeth

Editorial by

Mixed Martial Farce Magazine here with a very... interesting interview that we did recently. We were contacted by a man named Brody Macbeth who claimed to be a superstar fighting out of the Fortitude FC promotion in Rio de Janiero, Brazil. This was hard for us to believe at first because Macbeth has never fought professional MMA before.

Now, we know that Fortitude FC is the fastest rising MMA promotion in all of Brazil. In recent events, the popularity of the young promotion has skyrocketed. it is now ranked number two in the country behind only Ultimate Vale Tudo in popularity and is rated among the top four most wealthy companies in the country.

This is why we initially turned down interviews with Mr. Macbeth. We reached out to Danny Laverty for comment about the young boxer's signing. He sighed and confirmed that, yes, unfortunately he had signed the young fighter. And no, the young fighter had not shut up ever since. So, with great apprehension, we agreed to visit Brody Macbeth at his private training facility. The name of the gym was an immediate red flag that something unusual was about to take place... “2 girls 1 hoarse”. We have no idea what that could possibly refer to but it can't be good. Or legal.

We sent our top investigative reporter onto the scene to talk with Mr. Macbeth: Quintin Smith.

Okay, so I got contacted by my boss and told that I had to go visit this place called 2 girls 1 hoarse, right? I thought I was being made fun of at first, to be honest with you. But, much to my horror, it's a real place and I have to go there to keep my job.

The gym is actually located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The entrance to this fine establishment is in an alleyway behind a Hooter's, go figure. I walked in and got a weird vibe from everybody training there. They all stopped what they were doing and stared at me. When I announced that I was here to talk to Brody Macbeth, everybody start
